Have you ever torn apart an all-original car to build what you wanted?

I was the second owner of a 1972 340 Demon. Factory 4 speed, 8.75, disc brakes. All there. Never touched expect the PO installed a spread bore Holley. Thats it.

I went to the wrecking yard and bought a correct TQ for it so it was just like it rolled off the showroom floor.

And I turned into a race car.

My dad should have beat my *** for that stupidity. It also had a steel crank and 10.5:1 pistons from the factory as it was an early 72.

Someone should have beat my *** for that one.
